[Solved] OnItemCommand only returning RowClick

[Phil Jones]

Sorry if I've missed the point here, but here's my issue.

I've got a RadGrid  declared like this

 

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" GridLines="None" runat="server" AllowPaging="True"

                    AutoGenerateColumns="False" OnUpdateCommand="UpdateItem" OnInsertCommand="UpdateItem"

                    AutoGenerateDeleteColumn="false" AutoGenerateEditColumn="false" OnDeleteCommand="DeleteItem"

                    Skin="WebBlue" OnNeedDataSource="NeedDataSource" Width="50%" OnItemCommand="LawyerSelected">

                    <PagerStyle Mode="NextPrevAndNumeric" />

                    <MasterTableView CommandItemDisplay="TopAndBottom" AutoGenerateColumns="false" DataKeyNames="LawyerID"

                        BorderColor="Black" BorderWidth="1px" GridLines="Both">

                        <Columns>

                            <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="LawyerID" DataType="System.Guid" AllowFiltering="false"

                                HeaderText="LawyerID" UniqueName="LawyerID" Visible="False">

                            </telerik:GridBoundColumn>

                            <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Name" HeaderText="Name" UniqueName="Name">

                            </telerik:GridBoundColumn>

                            <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Company" HeaderText="Company" UniqueName="Company">

                            </telerik:GridBoundColumn>

                            <telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="TemplateColumn2">

                                <ItemTemplate>

                                    <asp:LinkButton ID="EditButton" CommandName="Edit" CommandArgument="Edit" Text="Edit" runat="server"></asp:LinkButton>

                                </ItemTemplate>

                                <EditItemTemplate>

                                    <asp:LinkButton ID="UpdateButton" CommandName="Update" CommandArgument="Update" Text="Update" runat="server"></asp:LinkButton>

                                    <asp:LinkButton ID="CancelButton" CommandName="Cancel" CommandArgument="Cancel" Text="Cancel" runat="server"></asp:LinkButton>

                                </EditItemTemplate>

                            </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

                        </Columns>

                        <EditFormSettings ColumnNumber="2" CaptionDataField="Name" CaptionFormatString="Editing Lawyer {0}">

                            <FormTableItemStyle Wrap="false" />

                        </EditFormSettings>

                    </MasterTableView>

                    <ClientSettings EnablePostBackOnRowClick="true"></ClientSettings>

                </telerik:RadGrid>

 

The important bits being that the auto edit feature is turned off.

 

What I want to be able to do is either click on the edit link (Edit Button) to edit the row or click on a row to do something else (display related information).

For some reason when I click on a row the CommandName that’s returned is usually rowClick and not Edit.

Hi Phil,

The CommandName will be RowClick since you have set the EnablePostBackOnRowClick property to true.  If you want to perform an edit opeartion while clicking the row you can try the following approach.

CS:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.CommandName == "RowClick")
    {
        e.Item.Edit = true;
    }
    RadGrid1.Rebind();
}

Hi - thanks for the propmt reply - so I cannot have a separate edit click and a rowclick if I have set the EnablePostBackOnRowClick property to true?

I want to have two separate events happen depending on whether the user clicks the row or the edit link...

Hi Phil,

I am also looking for a similar scenario. Did you got a solution for this?

Thanks & Regards
